Michael's class was by far one of the more engaging courses I have taken at Smith. He often sets aside class time to allow students to discuss/ask questions about current economic/political events. The midterm and final were difficult, but not unfair. He curves them in the end, so it is not horrible. |

This class consists of weekly homework's, case studies, a presentation, midterm, and a final. The homework is through an online service and is rather straightforward but can take awhile. There are four case studies they are all straightforward for the most part as well but definitely go to office hours. The midterm is take-home and similar to the practice midterm it takes awhile to do but you can get a good grade on it. The final is the hardest part of the class since its 3 hours and in-person however, it is open note. Mike overall does a good job teaching the material just be expected to spend a decent amount of time on the class each week and study a lot for the final it will make your life easier. |

You can tell he thinks highly of himself, and loves the sound of his own voice, but it doesn’t reach the level of "arrogance". He is helpful, friendly, and approachable. He explains the concepts really well, and delivers the lecture in a way where its hard not to pay attention. He grades fairly, open to requests of re-grading, replies really fast to emails. His assignments are hard and his slides are messy. You need to write notes and pay attention to class. |

Ego takes over the room. He knows his stuff, but be prepared to listen to his political agenda. Probably the worst class I have taken since potty training. |
